Since the 1930s, manufacturers were well aware of the link between asbestos exposure and diseases such as asbestosis, asbestos-related lung cancer, mesothelioma and other asbestos-related diseases. Despite this knowledge, manufacturers did nothing to protect or warn people of these dangers. In fact, these materials were used in a variety of products, including:
- Insulation
- Fire-retardant materials
- Gaskets
- Floor tiles
- Cement
- Shingles
Asbestos was not regulated until the 1970s, although certain products, such as brake pads, contained asbestos until the 1990s. People who worked in many different industries were at risk for asbestos exposure.
For example, people working in shipyards, steel mills, power stations, railroads and other locations were exposed to asbestos for years. Secondhand exposure to asbestos can also lead to serious diseases. For instance, workers who unintentionally bring home asbestos fibers in their clothing from work could have exposed their spouses and loved ones to asbestos.
